Global categories are created by system administrators and all users can add documents to these categories. Administrators can manage global categories in Site Manager -> Development -> Categories. On this page, only the global categories can be created and managed.

 

 

 

Please note

 

Users without administration privileges can also edit global categories created by system administrators (CMS Desk -> Properties -> Categories); however, with certain limitations compared to editing here.
